Passerby

Photography’s astounding ability to be transformative has always amazed me. The potential for something small to be so beautiful is unveiled when captured through the lens. The natural beauty found in the world around us also draws my attention. To find and reveal the hidden artistry we pass by daily is accomplished through my project.
These pinecones, taken out of their natural context and enlarged to a grand size, represent the discovery of something normally unnoticed, made into a piece of art. The immense detail the of the cones could have easily gone unnoticed if I had been a simple passerby of this small element of nature. My discovery definitely amazed me.
